If
you live in Kansas or you're shipping to a Kansas address, we had
a deal for you!

But like all such
things, it has to end--on January 31, 2006 to be precise.

Why
did we givea discount to Kansas? Why not Wyoming or Vermont? Simple: the
Kansas Board of Education attempted to give equal space in the state public
school biology curriculum to the doctrine of "Intelligent Design,"
claiming that it is a "scientific theory" about the origin and
development of life. It isn't, of course, and when real scientists complained
that "Intelligent Design" fits none of the criteria for an actual
scientific theory, the Board responded by redefining "science"
so that it is no longer limited to the search for natural explanations
for phenomena.

So
we're tried to do our part for science. BONE WARS is all about how scientific
theories get developed and tested (along with being about lying, stealing,
and conniving). We hope that our promotion served a role where the schools
in Kansas won't.
